Viewpoints in Lima

Larcomar is a dramatic open-air shopping and entertainment center built directly into the Miraflores cliffs, offering shopping, dining, cinema, and nightlife with sweeping Pacific Ocean views. Its terraced architecture descending the cliff face makes it architecturally unique among South American malls.

The Malecón de Miraflores is a spectacular 10-kilometer clifftop promenade running along the Pacific coast, offering uninterrupted ocean views, paraglider sightings, and access to a string of parks, gardens, and sculptures. It is Lima's premier outdoor walking and cycling route.

Faro de la Marina is a 1920s lighthouse in the Miraflores military zone, visible as a distinctive silhouette from the Malecón. It marks the entrance to the former naval zone.

The Malecón de Barranco is a clifftop promenade running along the edge of the Barranco district, offering sweeping views over the Pacific Ocean and the Costa Verde coastline.

Cerro San Cristóbal is a 400-meter hill on the north bank of the Rímac River offering the most complete panoramic view of Lima. Crowned by a large illuminated cross, it has been a landmark and pilgrimage site since the earliest days of the colonial city.

Morro Solar is a 281-metre coastal hill in Chorrillos topped by a monumental Christ statue and a memorial cross, offering 360-degree views of Lima's coastline and the city skyline.
